Yliana & Joseph
Wedding Party
Talia Kolosseus
Maid of Honor
I am incredibly blessed to have a sister who is not only my built-in best friend but also an incredible person. She has always been there for me, keeping me grounded and safeguarding all of my secrets. Her gracefulness and inner beauty radiate from her, making her one of the most stunning individuals I have ever met. I can't imagine walking down the aisle without her by my side, and I am grateful for her presence in my life every day.
Luke Doerner
Best Man
Our friendship began in high school, where we quickly became inseparable. We shared a love for sports, and spent every day together. From the moment I met Luke, he has been a constant presence in my life, always there to lend an ear or a shoulder to lean on. I am forever grateful for his unwavering support and guidance, as I would not be the person I am today without him by my side. He has seen me through my worst days and has been a light in my life, always reminding me of my worth and potential. To call him my best friend is an understatement - he is my brother in every sense of the word.
Annie Koepke
Bridesmaid
She's more than a friend; she's like a sister to me, someone I confide in and who supports me unconditionally. It's hard to put into words how much I appreciate having her in my life. She not only introduced me to Joe but also became my closest friend right from the start. From navigating college to facing the challenges of adulthood, she's always been there through thick and thin. I owe a lot of my personal growth and achievements to her, as she's the one who encourages me to aim high and push my limits. Her kindness and compassion motivate me to be a better person each day.
Alec Davidson
Best Man
He is the kind of friend who never shies away from a challenge - always pushing me to think deeper, have meaningful conversations, and approach life with an open mind. Whether it's a late-night talk or a spontaneous adventure, he is always ready and willing to be there for me. I couldn't ask for a more loyal and supportive friend. His unwavering positivity and enthusiasm inspire me to be a better person every day, and I cherish the moments we've shared together.
Solana Cummings
Bridesmaid
My best friend since the day I was born - we've been inseparable ever since she picked me up out of my papasan as a two-year-old! From watching "the abominable snowman" to navigating the ups and downs of life together. Solana is a force to be reckoned with - her creativity, humor, and infectious energy light up any room she enters. I am constantly in awe of her strength and courage as she fearlessly tackles every challenge that comes her way. To have my "Ana Cousin" standing by my side on this special day is an honor.
Isaac Kolosseus
Groomsman
Isaac and I have shared so many incredible experiences over the past few years, from our "fishing trip" in Las Cruces to trying to dunk basketballs together and even traveling across seas. Through it all, we've formed a bond that feels more like brotherhood than friendship. He is genuine and kind-hearted. I'm looking forward to creating even more memories together in the years to come, and I couldn't be more thrilled to have him standing by my side - and by Yliana's side - on this special day.
Madison Barnes
Bridesmaid
Mady is truly a force of nature, infusing every moment with energy and contagious positivity that's hard to match. Her enthusiasm is like a spark that lights up any situation, bringing a sense of fun to everything she touches. Through thick and thin, Mady has consistently been a rock in my life, someone I can always lean on no matter what. Her ability to lift me up when I need it most is unwavering. If someone had told me 10 years ago, when Mady, Lauren, Hannah, Talia, and I were running around my family's pecan orchard playing Harry Potter, that they would one day be walking down my wedding aisle with me, I would have believed them without hesitation.
Jesse Regalado
Groomsman
I met Jesse during our sophomore year of college, and from the very beginning, he became an integral part of my life. As my roommate and friend, he has been a constant source of support and encouragement, always there to lend a helping hand or a listening ear. His presence in my life has been nothing but positive and uplifting, and I feel so fortunate to have him as a friend. Jesse has an infectious energy that lights up any room he enters - he truly is the life of the party. I am beyond excited to have him by my side on this special day, knowing that he will bring so much joy and enthusiasm to every moment. With Jesse there, I know that this day will be one of the most memorable and fun-filled experiences of my life.
Lauren Barnes
Bridesmaid
Lauren is truly one of the kindest and most calming people I have ever met. Her presence in my life is a balm to my soul, and her unwavering love and gentle encouragement have seen me through some of the toughest times I have faced. Despite her gentle demeanor, she is tough as nails and moves throughout life with grace and determination. Even in the most mundane moments, Lauren is always there, bringing joy and laughter to every situation. I am incredibly grateful to have her as a friend and to have her by my side on my special day.
Hannah Cannon
Bridesmaid
Hannah has been like a sister to me for as long as I can remember, and our bond has only grown stronger with time. It's amazing how we can just pick up where we left off, no matter how much time goes by. It's a beautiful reminder of the enduring nature of our connection. She's not just a friend; she's the ultimate hype woman! She genuinely cares about everyone she meets, and it shows in everything she does – from those heart-to-heart conversations to the silliest remarks that leave us all laughing. What sets Hannah apart is her unwavering loyalty. Through thick and thin, she's always been there for me, and I know I can always count on her.
